• The view of the human world as an inherent part of the natural environment
  • An invitation to explore ways for human activities to become flowing processes that react and interact with the laws of nature
  • The mutual participation of humans amongst themselves
The most important aspect of the word participation, in this context, is the perception of the human world as an inherent part of the natural environment. The concept of participation refers to action that is one with the activities of nature. Participation withholds an invitation to explore ways for human activities to become flowing processes that react and interact with the laws of nature.
Participation relates also to the mutual participation of humans amongst themselves. This might relate to issues of collaborative efforts for a common goal, or to fellow humans partaking in deciphering their inter-relations with the natural environment.
An additional aspect of participation, in the context of design, could be the integration of the user in the design process, i.e. the participation of the user in one or more steps of the implementation process.
